Read around a world

Hi all, I have been thinking about the best way of expanding my knowledge about worlds literature and my plan is to create a list of books from different countries and time periods to get myself more familiar with other works. Do any of you have any recommendations? Maybe we can help eachother to step out of our reading comfort zones and explore around the world.

Pinterest replacements?

Hi all, I know this question isn't book related but since this is an anti-ai platform I was wondering if anyone knows any good Pinterest alternatives. I'm speaking because OpenAI is looking into buying Pinterest and aside from being an AI firm they are also being ultra mega evil and gave $25 million to the Trump administration.

I really love pinterest, I get all of my clothing, book, poetry, fanart, music recommendations from it but I cannot stand the thought of using and OpenAI product. Does anyone have any alternatives?

The Knight and the Moth (The Stonewater Kingdom, #1)

Rachel Gillig

From BookTok sensation and NYT bestselling author Rachel Gillig, comes the next big romantasy phenomenon: a gothic, mist-cloaked tale of a prophetess who is forced beyond the safety of her cloister on an impossible quest to defeat the gods with the one knight whose future is beyond her sight. Sybil Delling has spent nine years dreaming of having no dreams at all. Like the other foundling girls who traded a decade of service for a home in the great cathedral, Sybil is a Diviner. In her dreams she receives visions from six unearthly figures known as Omens. From them, she can predict terrible things before they occur, and lords and common folk alike travel across the kingdom of Traum's windswept moors to learn their futures by her dreams. Just as she and her sister Diviners near the end of their service, a mysterious knight arrives at the cathedral. Rude, heretical, and devilishly handsome, the knight Rodrick has no respect for Sybil's visions. But when Sybil's fellow Diviners begin to vanish one by one, she has no choice but to seek his help in finding them. For the world outside the cathedral's cloister is wrought with peril. Only the gods have the answers she is seeking, and as much as she'd rather avoid Rodrick's dark eyes and sharp tongue, only a heretic can defeat a god.

Project Hail Mary

Andy Weir

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission—and if he fails, humanity and the earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn’t know that. He can’t even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he’s been asleep for a very, very long time. And he’s just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company. His crewmates dead, his memories fuzzily returning, Ryland realizes that an impossible task now confronts him. Hurtling through space on this tiny ship, it’s up to him to puzzle out an impossible scientific mystery—and conquer an extinction-level threat to our species. And with the clock ticking down and the nearest human being light-years away, he’s got to do it all alone. Or does he?

The Loneliest Girl in the Universe

Lauren James

Can you fall in love with someone you’ve never met, never even spoken to – someone who is light years away? Romy Silvers is the only surviving crew-member of a spaceship travelling to a new planet, on a mission to establish a second home for humanity amongst the stars. Alone in space, she is the loneliest girl in the universe until she hears about a new ship which has launched from Earth – with a single passenger on board. A boy called J. Their only communication with each other is via email – and due to the distance between them, their messages take months to transmit across space. And yet Romy finds herself falling in love. But what does Romy really know about J? And what do the mysterious messages which have started arriving from Earth really mean? Sometimes, there’s something worse than being alone . . .

This is a re-read, but it’s been a while, so I quite like rediscovering the story. I forgot how funny it was!

This is 800+ pages long on Libby bro 😭 but this is good already I like it, and I have a feeling I'm going to relate to Clary WAYY too much (we're both teenagers anyway)
